Lions Learning Retreat Mission: To offer a weekend retreat designed to provide individual Lions with tools to use in their local clubs to enhance and improve their opportunities to succeed in serving their communities and Lions Clubs International.
Thank you to the MD-12 Council of Governors for its support of the LLR! Many Lions Districts in Tennessee also run promotional rates, scholarships, etc. to come to the LLR. Check with your District Leadership Chair or District Governor for more information about how your District supports members.
The volunteer presenters and speakers who will provide the leadership and instruction for the weekend are ready to make sure you have the best possible experience. We hope you will be invigorated and encouraged and that you take home new tools to enrich your service. Thank you for being a part of the future of Lions in Tennessee.
LLR Annual Basket Contest: We ask that each club bring a gift basket that represents the club, their community, or a special them. Suggested value of the basket: $25-$50. The baskets will be auctioned off on Saturday night with all proceeds going to offset the cost of LLR.
Lions Pride Choir: Enjoy singing? Join the Lions Pride Choir! Practice Friday evening and perform Saturday evening and Sunday morning. It is great fun! Come join us.
“WE SERVE” – Service Projects: This year’s charities include Nashville’s Hope Lodge, MTSU’s Food Pantry, and Save-a-Kitty Athens. A list of needed items will be added.
Hotel Information: Accommodations are the responsibility of individual Lions and are not included in your Registration Fees. The LLR receives a special rate from the adjoining Holiday Inn Express. Details are on the registration form. There are also several other hotels nearby. Parking is available free on-site at both the Hotel and the Conference Center.
